Western Town Library to host Utica ZooMobile | Rome Daily Sentinel - Rome Sentinel

WESTERNVILLE — The Western Town Library will host a program with the Utica ZooMobile at the Town Park, 9219 Main St., on Thursday, Aug. 26, at 6:30 p.m. Organizers encourage patrons to bring lawn chairs or blankets for social distancing.

Refreshments will be served after the presentation.

The ZooMobile presentation is an interactive program in which a Utica Zoo educator brings a variety of live animals and discusses related biofacts. The typical ZooMobile presentation features four animals and lasts 30 to 50 minutes.  For the safety of the ambassador animals, participants will not be able to touch mammals, birds, amphibians, or invertebrates. Touching of reptiles may be permitted at the discretion of the educator. Guests will be asked to wear masks when touching reptiles since social distancing cannot be maintained. This program is being funded by donations received from Stewart's Shops.

The Western Town Library is a multipurpose organization dedicated to enriching the lives of community members by providing recreational and educational services. It is an affiliate of the Mid-York Library System which provides support, on-line services and shares the Mid-York catalog of books, magazines and DVDs. The Western Town Library is open from 2 to 8 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday and from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday.  

For information on services or activities, call the Western Town Library at 315-827-4118, visit it on Facebook or see its webpage at https://www.westerntownlibrary.org.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu

Reviews: Horrified SeaQuest Aquarium Visitors Tell All | PETA - PETA Reviews: Horrified SeaQuest Aquarium Visitors Tell All | PETA - PETA Posted: 21 Sep 2020 12:00 AM PDT SeaQuest aquariums—which are owned by Vince Covino—are plagued by issues: animal deaths, legal violations, injuries to employees and members of the public from direct contact with animals, and customer reviews that'll make your jaw drop (and not in a good way). So if you've ever considered visiting a SeaQuest location or any other Covino-operated aquarium, do yourself and animals a favor: Learn from these TripAdvisor and Yelp reviewers. At SeaQuest Folsom in California, an otter was apparently whacked with a broom. "This place smells the animals look tortured and starved. I'm not a fan of this place.
